FORT STEWART - A military judge has delayed until next year the court-martial of a Fort Stewart soldier charged with the 2008 slayings of a superior and a fellow U.S. soldier in Iraq.
Army Sgt. Joseph Bozicevich (BOZ-eh-vich) had been scheduled to stand trial in June. But a judge granted a request by his defense lawyers Tuesday to postpone the court-martial until February.
Bozicevich, of Minneapolis, could face the death penalty if convicted of murder in the slayings of Staff Sgt. Darris Dawson and Sgt. Wesley Durbin at a patrol base in Iraq in September 2008.
Carole Durbin, the mother of one of the victims, says she's devastated by the decision to delay the trial.
